I am currently a doctoral candidate at Louisiana Tech University, pursuing a doctorate in Industrial / Organizational Psychology. I plan to have my dissertation completed by the end of 2023, if not sooner. While working on my Ph.D., I am also interested in pursuing industry experience, preferrably in an internship position that provides a variety of different experiences contained within the field of IO.
The focus of my academics outside of coursework has been on psychometrics (e.g., IRT, CAT) and developing assessments for selection. For example, developing a simplistic Automatic Item Generation numeric sequence test and my dissertation, which pertains to a situational judgement test for selecting project managers. My interests however, do expand past selection into the broader field of talent management, especially methods of retaining talent. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions you may have.
